Fonts in Action 1.1 is a beneficial and easy to use application with which you can then copy and paste the version you want into your word processor or graphic design program.

In Mac OS 10.3, Apple's FontBook application replaced KeyCaps. KeyCaps had an advantage that you could try the fonts and the cut and paste an extended character without having to figure out what key combination to type. FontBook does not allow cutting and pasting so it is very difficult to figure out what key combination to use to enter some special characters. Fonts in Action makes it easy.
